There are rumors that Microsoft is exploring making the Zune free with subscription to be more competitive with the iPod. On the surface, who doesn’t like free but exactly how free is your “free” cell phone? If anything, it will hasten the demise of the Zune and Microsoft: 1) Not that Zune has established much […]

Sure, some people complain we have advertising everywhere the Sun don’t shine but when it’s this brilliant … (VIA FREDERICK SAMUEL) Bring it on! RED 45! That’s mine!

If you are unfamiliar with the concept, you take a light-tight box, poke it with a teeny hole, place film inside (while in a darkroom or blackbag), and then remove the hole (lens) cover and voila!
